And on either side of them were: King Baudouin of Belgium in army khaki; Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, splendid in his decorations and chartreuse sash; West Germany's President Heinrich Lübke; Philippines President Diosdado Macapagal; Korea's President-elect General Park Chung Hee. They, along with 213 other world leaders, headed to St. Matthew's Cathedral, eight blocks away...

Forty-eight hours later, Saud got an even worse shock: one of his favorite wives, handsome Princess Im Mansour, vanished from the palace to join her lover, Ben Salem, in exile. The personal and political blows combined to impair the regal health once again. Moslem pilgrims to Mecca who were booked on half a dozen jet flights home suddenly found their passages had been canceled.
